Manchester United transfer news: Striker frustrated at Old Trafford says national team manager

Mexico boss Herrera says Hernandez is not enjoying life with the champions.

Javier Hernandez is strongly linked with a move away from Manchester United and Mexico manager Miguel Herrera says the striker is frustrated at Old Trafford.

The 25-year-old has been sparingly used by the Red Devils since David Moyes took over as boss in the summer of 2013, with Hernandez making just 10 starts in all competitions this term.

It’s this lack of game time that is said to be annoying the Mexican and Herrera has revealed just how the forward is feeling about the current situation with United.

“He seemed well but he is a bit frustrated because he doesn’t play despite training well and the truth is that when he does play, he makes a huge effort on the pitch,” the head coach was quoted by Sky Sports.

“He is a bit frustrated because the current manager doesn’t give him many chances.”

These limited opportunities has stifled Hernandez’s goal-scoring as well, with the attacker finding the net just seven times in 25 appearances.

Wayne Rooney, Robin van Persie and Danny Welbeck are all ahead of the man known as ‘Chicharito’ for a place in the starting XI and this could affect the player’s international chances.

With the 2014 World Cup coming up in the summer, Hernandez wants to be playing regularly in order to give Mexico the best chance of doing well in the competition.

With Moyes in charge at the Premier League champions this may not happen though and the striker may have to leave the Theatre of Dreams to achieve this.
